  1. First day for early Goose hunting in Atlantic Canada starts Sept 7th. Got my 3" Black Clouds BB today. Had a tempature of over 100 degrees for the past three days here and Earl is hitting the Atlantic west coast early Saturday morning. Temp is going to cool off from that just in time for the 7th as it's dropping down to 70 this weekend.

  2. If the Nova and rem are about the same price, get the Nova as the Rem is most likely overpriced for what you get. In this decade, Benellis are superior guns to Rems. It's surprising to me that they are priced about the same. The only advantage the Rem has is it has more aftermarket parts than the Nova. IMHO, get the Nova and don't look back.;)

  3. I personnaly refuse to clean my SBEII Max-4 exterior with solvent. Some repports have shown that it can damage the cammo coating. I only use solvent in the interior parts, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and add a very thin layer of oil on the exterior metal parts, then wipe the excess if any. I pay attention to any scratches on the exterior metal cammo finish. If any, keep a light oil film on it.

  4. Is it so hard for you to believe this shotgun has never been fired?.......I would have said "new in box" but I don't have the box anymore.....This was bought as a collector's gun.......and that's what it is........Locked up in a safe ever since......

     

    Well, if I was buying a gun as a collector's gun, I would keep the original box, mannual, oil, original receipt and everything else that came with it. IMHO, when you keep all that stuff in mint condition, it adds value to any gun for resale. I keep everything for any gun I buy, collector or not.:o

  5. Yah, I got the same email. If I send my video doing the same with my SBEII, wonder if I would win a prize also? Hummm... 15 seconds?.. I would have to be pretty fast trying that with the SBE.

    When the guy puts the Vinci back together on the video, he practically has his finger on the trigger.

  6. Hi all, does anyone know if the Waterfowl season is going to be open for the 2010 season for the areas affected by the oil spill? :confused:

     

    Friend of mine who is a Wildlife expert, tells me that there is a North American review on the effects of this spill and that the affected birds are being discussed which includes our Waterfowl friends.

  7. If you are considering a handgun, being a Corrections Officer, I would trust my life with none other than a Glock or a Sig Sauer. However, if I had to pick one, I would go with the Sig P226. This is only my personal opinion.

     

    Way to go TS, great gesture, great advise:cool:

  8. I paid 10 bucks less for my nova than an 870 supermag. The 870 came with 1 choke and novas come with 3. Dicks was running a special to if you bought a nova, you got a free soft case to.

     

     

    Actually, now that I think about it, Correctional Service Canada most likely purchased their security 870's 20 years ago when Benelli wasn't an option. I'm guessing they bought approx. 1000 of them at the time. They still use the same 870's to this day which most have only seen rounds for training purposes and all still in good condition.:cool:

  9. The only time where I would pick the 870 is if I had to use in pitch dark situation or someone poured acid into my eyes or peper sprayed me. But that's only because that is the only survival weapon I was trained with to use blindfoled. Yes, I'm comfortable with the 870, however, I would have rather recieved that same training with a Nova, but the service goes for pricing, and 870 was a budget choice.

  10. I've heard similar stories. Syn stock won't rust and the coating on metal parts when no scratches will also prevent from rusting. I clean my SBE II with a damp cloth. I only use solvent and lube on the inside. For the price you pay for them, why take the chance.

     

    Congrats on your new Vinci...
